Chapter 227

AI County, in the city.

Half a day later, the place where the wall of the South Gate collapsed gradually expanded. In another half day, maybe a section of the wall outside the south gate will collapse completely. Once the city wall completely collapsed, Zhou Yu's soldiers would rush into the city.

Liu Xiu's hands supported the women's wall, and his eyes showed a trace of dignity.

Today, there is still no news from Chai sang, which is Liu Xiu's biggest worry. In fact, his withdrawal from AI county was not a failure or a major event.

What Liu Xiu worried about was whether Chaisang's war would succeed.

Chai sang won and the whole situation was alive. Even if he was in trouble for the time being, it didn't matter.

On the contrary, if Chai sang can't conquer, Zhou Yu's rear is as stable as Mount Tai, and Liu Xiu can't pose a threat to Zhou Yu.

Deng Zhan stood next to Liu Xiushen and said, "Lord, the soldiers in the army have been arranged properly. The direction of our retreat is set at the north gate. Considering that there may be ambush outside the north gate, there will be 1000 soldiers as the vanguard to open the way, and then the army will move forward. "

Liu Xiu nodded and said, "hold on a little longer. Maybe there will be a turn for the better soon."

Deng Zhan looks dignified outside the city with a heavy heart.

At noon, Zhou Yu's soldiers began to have lunch. After lunch, they will attack again.

It's just a matter of time.

Zhou Yu strengthened his offensive in the afternoon. The rumble of the impact sound, one after another sounded. A piece of stone across the sky, constantly falling on the wall.

The wall of the south gate can clearly feel the shaking and vibration of the wall.

"Boom!"

With a loud noise, part of the tower collapsed.

All the walls outside the south gate have been exposed to the eyes of Jiang Dongbing.

"Dong! Dong! "

The battle drum is beating outside the city.

Wave after wave of Jiangdong soldiers launched an attack.

Zhou Yu stood outside the city with a relaxed look and a look of expectation in his eyes. He murmured, "which side of the city gate are you going to break through? In my opinion, it should be the south gate. Through the south gate, you can get rid of the current predicament by going south to join Huang Zhong. If you break through from other city gates, you will not have this advantage. My army is stationed in the south gate. The strength of the army is on the surface. There will be no ambush, and it will be more conducive to your March. I'm looking forward to your breakthrough in the south gate. "

In the city, Liu Xiu saw that he could not resist, and finally ordered to withdraw.

The defenders of the South Gate retreated at last. When they retreated, Liu Xiu had led a large army to the gate of the north gate.

"Boom!"

The gate of the city was wide open, and the vanguard troops who broke through the encirclement took the lead to rush out. After a thousand vanguards rushed out, Liu Xiu, Deng Zhan, Tai Shici and the army began to break through.

The news of Liu Xiu's breakthrough from the north gate spread to Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu was surprised to learn the news.

North gate!

Liu Xiu went to the north gate, which was really a puzzling choice.

"Do you want to join Chaisang and huangzu and attack Chaisang?"

Zhou Yu's eyes narrowed and ordered to hunt him down.

Liu Xiu retreated quickly.

Liu Xiu's vanguard met Zhou Yu's ambush soldiers, but Liu Xiu's soldiers had strong fighting capacity, and it was not that they were in a panic to escape, and they were not strong enough. After a fight between the two sides, Zhou Yu's soldiers were completely defeated after only a little delay, and no Jingzhou soldiers were left.

The army broke through and ran to Chaisang.

Zhou Yu led the army and couldn't let go.

As soon as the two sides withdrew and pursued each other, Zhou Yu had no intention of letting Liu Xiu go, and always followed.

However, Liu Xiu made preparations early. His soldiers didn't carry many things. Each soldier only carried three days of dry food and a little water, but nothing else. As long as he got to Chaisang, there would be food. Liu Xiu would not let the food affect the speed of the March.

At night, the army stopped for a rest.

All the soldiers were resting where they were. There was no camp.

Taishici sat beside Liu Xiu, ate a mouthful of dry food, drank a mouthful of hot water, and said, "young master Xiu, how do you feel about running away in a mess? I was chased by your army and ran away. In a twinkling of an eye, you were killed by Zhou Yu and ran away

"It's not a panic run, it's a strategic retreat to avoid Zhou Yu for the time being," Liu said

Tai Shici said with a smile: "up to now, isn't he in a hurry? Mr. Xiu once said that the situation might be reversed in the next moment. But after such a long time, even the governor has begun to beat the water dog. How can the situation controlled by xiugongzi still be so bad? "

Liu xiudao: "Tai Shici, no one knows the final result until the end."

Tai Shici smiles and sits with his eyes closed. At the moment, Tai Shici was very comfortable. Someone took revenge for him.

"Newspaper!"

All of a sudden, a sentry came quickly, looking hasty.Liu Xiu said in a deep voice: "what's the matter? Is Zhou Yu's army catching up again? "

After hearing this, Tai Shici was convinced that Zhou Yu was coming again. He got up and patted his ass and said with a smile, "let's go. It seems that most governors will not give up this evening. They will definitely continue to pursue."

The soldier shook his head and reported: "in front of the official road leading to Chaisang, there is an army. This army is coming. We dare to come. However, the specific situation of this army is not clear. We do not know whether it is an enemy or a friend. "

"Click!"

In his heart, Tai Shici suddenly had a bad feeling.

Liu xiuphen told the soldiers to be on guard, and told them to go to inquire for information again.

"Newspaper!"

After that, another sentry came back. This soldier is a face of joy, shouting: "my Lord, good news, Zhao Yun back."

"Hoo

Liu Xiu's face was full of joy.

Zhao Yun is back!

It means that the war in Chaisang has come to an end.

Finally!

It's finally a success!

"Da! Dada

A sound of walking, from far to near, in the light of the fire, a white figure quickly came to Liu Xiu's side and stopped. Zhao Yun turned over and dismounted. He said with his fists in his arms, "master Xiu, Zhao Yun has fulfilled his mission."

How can taishici fulfill his mission? Don't insult what mission!

Liu Xiu asked, "OK, OK, just come back."

At this moment, Liu Xiu's heart was extremely excited, and finally won, and the plan was finally completed.

Zhao Yun was also very excited. He reported: "on the way to Chaisang, he happened to meet Jiang Dongbing who was escorting grain to zhouyu camp. At that time, I attacked this grain brigade, and then disguised as the attacked grain brigade and withdrew to Chaisang city. I made an agreement with Huang Zu to cheat him to open the gate, so he attacked. After the gate was opened, Huang Zu led his army to attack Chaisang. "

After a pause, Zhao Yun said: "Chaisang is under the control of Huang Zu. The Jiangdong soldiers stationed in Chaisang have gone to Lujiang County in the north. This time, Huang Zu gave 5000 soldiers. Because the food was on the road, I arranged for hundreds of soldiers to deliver the food. "

"You've done a great job. You've come in time."

Liu Xiu's excitement is hard to suppress. It's the most appropriate time for Zhao Yun to come back.

Tess stood aside, his face frozen.

Lost!

Zhou Yu must have failed.

He finally understood the meaning of Liu Xiu's so-called turning the situation around at the next moment. It turned out that what Liu Xiu was looking forward to was not Huang Zhong coming to the rescue, but the reinforcements waiting to come back after taking Chaisang. Chaisang fell, Zhou Yu's base camp was lost, and the situation changed immediately.

Liu Xiu took a look at Tai Shici and didn't fight with him. He summoned the generals to discuss the strategy of attacking Zhou Yu. Now Liu Xiu is surrounded by nearly 15000 people, who are even more worried about the victory of the capture of Chaisang. Instead of being demoralized, they are full of fighting spirit.

The generals in the army have been greatly encouraged by the news.

The news of Chaisang's fall spread all over the army.

After discussion, Liu Xiu, Deng Zhan, Zhao Yun and others gave orders, and then the soldiers began to take action.

On the official road, the bonfires crackled and burned, dispersing the darkness and emitting heat. Liu Xiu's army, no longer in the dark to continue on the road, but temporarily stopped moving forward, a good rest in place, quietly waiting for Zhou Yu's army to catch up.

The final fight between the two sides is imminent.

For Liu Xiu, the present situation has come to an end.
